Avid Pro Tools Delivers Higher Video Resolution and Frame Rates, Streamlining Film and TV Post-Production Workflows
17 October 2019 - 12:00AM
Avid® (Nasdaq: AVID) today announced that the newest version of Pro
Tools® will be unveiled at AES 2019 in New York. Pro Tools 2019
will support higher video resolutions and frame rates, giving users
the highest precision when editing and mixing sound to picture,
smoother collaboration between editorial and sound mixing, and
streamlined end-to-end audio post-creative workflows.
“The latest Pro Tools 2019 update allows audio professionals to
work on the same high-resolution video used in Media Composer®
(video editing software) within Pro Tools, eliminating the need for
transcoding and file format or resolution conversion,” said Rob
D’Amico, Director of Product Marketing for Audio & Video
Solutions at Avid. “This dramatically streamlines end-to-end audio
post production workflows, saving time and costly storage.”
With the demand for more high-resolution video content to be
captured in 4K, the newest version of Pro Tools increases the
efficiency of sound editing and engineering teams by enabling
playback and display of 4K resolution files and higher frame rates.
The flexibility to select frame rates and resolutions
independently, and work with non-standard video sizes, is critical
to support a range of projects such as web-based video, gaming, or
new formats that become popular in the future.
Pro Tools 2019 also improves Dolby Atmos ‘in the box’ mixing
workflows and delivery of multiple mixes in a single file. With
full Core Audio support of the Dolby Audio Bridge, users can now
send 130 channels from Pro Tools (up from 32) to the Dolby Atmos
Renderer, simplifying Dolby Atmos ‘in the box’ mixing and playback
workflows with Pro Tools | HDX and other Core Audio devices. Users
can also deliver multiple mixes in a single WAV file for easier
delivery of localized mixes to streaming services. With the
addition of Pro Tools into the Netflix Post Technology Alliance,
Avid is now working closely with Netflix to ensure its solutions
support technical and workflow requirements today and in the
future.
Pro Tools is used in music, film and TV to compose, record,
edit, and mix audio—in the studio or in the cloud. Pro Tools
empowers artists, whether creating and mixing stereo soundtracks in
sync with images, editing audio timeclips with timecode precision,
or sculpting and shaping audio quickly when building scenes from
scratch.
